Hey everyone, I was wondering. what's the given ratio when mixing in molasses with my RO water?

I use molasses on my cal mag feeds only. not with my primary feeds. if you use too much you will gum up your soil.i assume your in soil.no?............. oops sorry bro.just seen it was organics. have to ask someone else. sorry for inconvieience.

Make sure the molasses IS unsulphured NOT sulphured. Grandma's Gold Standard Original is available in every major grocery store. It's my brand of choice, but any unsulphured molasses will work.

Use up to 2 Tablespoons per gallon. Use warm water to help dissolve the molasses then add the rest of the water to equal the total amount of water needed.

Molasses is good at any stage of growth and helps keep your soil microbes happy. I use 1/2 teaspoon to a gallon with every watering from the start. In FLOWER I'll up it to 1 Tablespoon to help out the cal-maq issues that may come in FLOWER. As with everything in cannabis growing "Less Is More".

1 Tablespoon has 110mg Potassium; trace elements of Calcium, Iron and Magnesium.

Good stuff for your girls and makes good Crinkle Cookies too.
